Kilitbahir Castle (Turkish: Kilitbahir Kalesi) is a fortress on the west side of the Dardanelles, opposite the city of Çanakkale, where there is a corresponding fortress (Kale-i Sultaniye), from which Çanakkale takes its name. The two castles were constructed by Fatih Sultan Mehmet in 1463 to control the straits at their narrowest point. Kilitbahir's name, meaning "lock of the sea", reflects this defensive purpose.
Kilitbahir to west (which also has ferry links with Çanakkale) is full of pleasant traditional stone architecture and its impressive citadel dating back to 15th century is well worth a visit.

KİLİTBAHİR CASTLE
Kilitbahir Castle is located on the European side of the Dardanelles in the Kilitbahir village. The castle was built by the Ottoman Sultan Mehmet the Conqueror in 1462 with the purpose of controlling both the Dardanelles and Bosphorus to provide security for the newly- conquered İstanbul. Later, the castle of Kilitbahir, which means Locked Sea, was enlarged according to defensive requirements and reinforced with towers and bastions. It was restored by Süleyman the magnificent, has a trefoil- shaped citadel in the centre and a tower with seven storeys inside that.
The castle is surrounded by external walls and three bastions called Sarıkule, Mecidiye and Namazgah, which were added later. The three-leafed clover-like Kilitbahir architecture is very different from the usual Ottoman fortress. The Fatih Sultan Mehmet's wonder of geometry is believed to be associated with this kind of architecture.
